Hi, and welcome to TSDN!
PHP is a programing language, used by web servers to build and display dynamic web pages.
The file you are downloading, download.php, contains the code that the web server uses to build the download page on the web page you are downloading from. I doubt very much that they ever meant for you to download that file, it is far more likely that the page is broken or you have done something the designers did not intend you to do as you tried to download the file.
If you downloaded this page by right clicking and selecting 'Save Target As', you may want to try to click the link instead, which is undoubtedly what the page's designers intended you to do.

im trying to let a user download a file from my website, for example a
picture. i dont want the user to have to right-click and do save-as, but
instead i want a window to popup (the window with "Save File","Open
File","More Info",etc) so that the user can download it easily. i have a
feeling this has something to do with headers, but i have no idea what the
correct headers are.
thanks in advance

I am trying to implment a file download via a link such that when clicked,

I have that working. However, I still have a few issues. First, the

Hi
I just downloaded the free Watcom compiler and am having a little
trouble with File IO http://www.openwatcom.org/index.php/Download
I downloaded the following example, commented out the Command line
arguments so that I could debug more easily. The example is a simple
file copy. and it works. but I would like to customize this to
automate some redundant changes in some large files.

Hello all:
I have a web app that creates an image of a graph (as a png), based on
user input of a combination of drop-down box items.
I'm trying to add a function that allows the user to save the graph
image to his hard drive, just like right-clicking on the image and
selecting 'save image as...' There's a link next to the graph that
should open the save image dialog. The link calls the following php script:

Note: You may skip to the end of the article if all you want is the perl code.
Introduction
Many websites have a form or a link you can use to download a file. You click a form button or click on a link and after a moment or two a file download dialog box pops-up in your web browser and prompts you for some instructions, such as “open” or “save“. I’m going to show you how to do that using a perl script.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
